ACL Injury

The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) stabilizes and protects the ligament of the knee. With one sudden stop, sharp turn, jump or fall in sports, athletes may hear a “pop” or hyperextension of the knee, causing the ACL to tear and leaving athletes in a great deal of pain. While the recovery time may take 12 to 18 months to fully heal, athletes can use protective braces to speed up recovery and get back to their sport with the ultimate support and confidence they need to prevent re-injury.

Whether you’re looking for post-surgery stabilization or compression sleeves, Core Discount Medical knee braces offer maximum protection. Wearing an ACL brace can help prevent further ACL injury, and can also help support the knee during the recovery process. A brace specific to protecting your ACL reduces the amount of time that your ACL is in an “at-risk” position for tearing. We carry several knee braces for ACL injuries, all of which are lightweight, durable, and comfortable, and designed to keep you active and healthy while you recover.
